Billy Owens, snappy guard, is the| only letterman back with the squad this year and probably will be sta- | tioned at his old defensive post. Four of the six 1933 “regulars” graduated while the fifth, Frank Lee @. forward, this year is wearing the spangles of St. Mary's parochial: school. Bob Finnegan, forward, and John Olgierson, center are freshmen at the University of North Dakota; ‘Wade Green, a guard, is at the Uni- versity of Kansas; and Gus Schlick- | enmayer, another guard, is a fresh- man at Jamestown college.

Nov. 15.—(P}— Minnesota, it appears, is “on the spot” again. Once more the familiar situation of the Big Ten having to depend on Minnesota to “do something about Michigan” in their annual late-season struggle is evolving. And Michigan, though it doesn’t wish to appear cocky, nevertheless can't seem to work up more than average apprehension over the in- vasion of the Gophers Nov. 18. ‘The long history of the Wolverine- Gopher duelling—it started in 1895 and there have been 20 meetings— is liberally punctuated with chapters relating how supposedly superior Minnesota teams have been beaten by the wily Wolverine. Wolves Not Worrying The famous Michigan “pass-punt- Prayer” system has worked to con- found physically elevens probabiy oftener than any other Michigan opponent. So this year, with the Wolverine fully as powerful physically as the Northmen, and with no discernible let-down in brain power, followers of the Maize and Blue see little grounds for serious worry. Yet, despite all this “paper” dope— and the further fact that Minnesota has a large quota of sophomores while Michigan's lineup is predom- jinantly veteran—the game still looms as the biggest question mark on the Wolves’ schedule. The power that kept the Gophers undefeated—though thrice tied—| through six straight Saturdays of un- usually tough competition has com- manded the respect of Coach Harry Kipke.
